I spent a few months myself trying to track down some wider-mouth 4L jars a few years back and gave up. Could only find 110mm.

Hi Tom,

   I went around in circles looking for these jars about 3 years ago, 

only to be told that they basically 'broke the mold' for them.  I called 

all of the distributors I could think of, and was given the same story- 

they just aren't making them anymore.

   If you find any, I'm sure we would all like to know...

Good luck,

-Katherine
